[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Seulgi Kim] A man in his 20s was arrested by the police after smashing his mother's Porsche car with a hammer following an argument with her.

The Gwangju Nambu Police Station announced on the 19th that they had booked A (20) without detention on charges of special property damage.

A is accused of hitting the hood of his mother's Porsche car with a hammer at around 1:30 a.m. the previous day in the parking lot of an apartment in Juwol-dong, Nam-gu, Gwangju.

According to the police, A committed the act after drinking alcohol in a bad emotional state following an argument with his mother.

The police, who were dispatched following a report from a citizen who witnessed the hammering, arrested A on the spot.

The 'Kinship Exemption' system, which exempts family members from punishment for property crimes such as theft and fraud, does not apply to property damage charges, making it difficult for A to avoid criminal punishment.

The police are investigating the exact circumstances of the incident with A.
